Appraisal Guidelines

Sense of Community Recognition

Our College. Our Future. Your GPRC.

Cumulative charitable donations of $1,000 or more within the last 3 years are recognized on the Sense of Community Honour Wall in the main concourse at GPRC as per our stewardship plan. With each raise in donor level, gifts to GPRC stay on the wall for longer periods of time, and even some forever. Donations that are pledged over a period of time will be recognized under the amount of the total gift committed to GPRC.

Donation pledge forms are to be completed by the donor and College representative before names will be placed on the Wall. The Annual Giving List is updated each year.

Gifts to GPRC Alumni Foundation are tax creditable. Thinking about making a gift to GPRC? Let one of our development team assist you in directing funds to purpose that best fits your intentions.
